"فرفير" meaning in All languages combined

See فرفير on Wiktionary

Noun [Arabic]

Etymology: Disputed etymology: * Deriving from Ancient Greek πορφύρα (porphúra, “murex; Tyrian purple color and dye”) which is expected to ultimately have a Semitic root likely from Phoenician. The medical sense derives from English purpura, from Latin, from the Greek. * Natively from the root ف ر ف ر (f-r-f-r) or ف و ر (f-w-r) meaning “to shake or shake about”, “to agitate”, “to mangle or molest”, “to break or crush”, theoretically a cognate with the Phoenician term that πορφύρα (porphúra) derives from. **All in reference to the process in which the Tyrian dye is extracted from the Murex; the more time-consuming poking or shaking the snail into agitation or the faster, but depleting, method of crushing the shell. **Deriving from either root in the sense of "becoming agitated", as the changing of color and complexion is used idiomatically to denote changes in states or moods in Semitic Languages.
